Consistency Project - Part 1

The One

August 2, 2020 • Scotty Priest

This Consistency Project is an opportunity for the people of Journey to commit one month to re-engage in the spiritual practices of Scripture reading, praying, and expressing gratitude for the 31 days in August. Every choice we make lines up and knocks down another choice—one domino at a time.

This a simple way to connect with God for one month, with the hope that it will become a powerful habit you keep practicing for the rest of the year. 2020 has not been easy, but let’s make sure we keep growing in our relationship with Christ. That’s why our theme for the Consistency Project is our identity in Christ.

Consistency Project - Week 5

August 30, 2020 • Scotty Priest

Journey's Consistency Project is an opportunity for the people of Journey to commit one month to re-engage in the spiritual practices of Scripture reading, praying, and expressing gratitude. Every choice we make lines up and knocks down another choice—one domino at a time. Each domino has enough force when it's tapped over, to knock down the next domino twice its size. Each choice has the successive power to make a bigger and better choice along the way. We want to encourage you to consistently seek after God. Because of what this season has looked like, there are going to be a lot of long standing mental and emotional effects that we all experience. We have experienced shock and sorrow that can lead to struggle which we often attempt to soothe with unhealthy choices. Moving forward, in order to set ourselves up for success we must first build a strong foundation of connection and relationships. After you have that solid foundation, we must build a frame of purpose and routine. Last, we must find the beauty that comes from balancing trust and self-control.

Consistency Project - Part 4

August 23, 2020 • Scotty Priest

A lot of us carry around the weight of our past mistakes believing that they disqualify us from being used by God, but God uses broken people to do His work. In the Bible, Paul comes from a past that is full of brokenness to the point of murder, but this only further propels Him towards the work God does in and through him. You are not what you have done. Instead, you are who God says you are, and He wants to use you if you will say yes.

Each choice has the successive power to make a bigger and better choice along the way. We want to encourage you to consistently seek after God. In the book of Acts, we read about the growth of the church that is a result of a group of people acting with boldness to proclaim the message of Jesus. It is not God’s intention for a small group of people to do the work of the church. Instead, His intention is that we all are a part. Each person has a responsibility to use their gifts and abilities to help the church grow. No matter the fear and trepidation, we want to live our lives in reckless abandon for the Gospel. We need to grab a hold of the call Jesus has on our life and continue to move forward because heaven is our reward.
